  • I wanted to swap out my too long spout for a shorter one but the threads on the existing are a lot shorter/tighter.
    Can anyone identify if an adaptor exists that may work?

  • If the threads fit together like this (might have to take that rubber grommet off to check):

    then they're probably the same, in which case you could cut the longer one down a bit to fit. In my experience plumbing threads are all over the shop with loads of "standards" in use, and that's not even counting manufacturer's own weird threads.

    tl:dr - get a new spout from the same manufacturer, or get a new tap. Or maybe it'll fit with a trim. I'd bet the farm on no adaptor existing.

  • Thanks, I located the diagrams one is ‘1/2 BSP and one 1/2 G. Still difficult to work out what this means!
